More Insights

Built in 1948 (78 years old).
Condition: Built in 1948, this property retains much of its original character, which translates to significantly outdated components. The kitchen features very dated white cabinets, tile countertops, and old linoleum/vinyl flooring, requiring a full renovation. Bathrooms are also very dated, with one showing only a partial, older update. While it benefits from dual-pane windows and central A/C, the overall interior, including the unpermitted garage conversion, requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation to meet modern standards and address potential code issues. The property is functional but needs significant investment beyond minor updates.
